**SOLD** (via CL)
My baby has gotta go to a new home.
1972 Honda cb450 K5 for sale, not a bobber/cafe racer/flat tracker, but a nice, mild custom on a very nice original bike. Runs excellent, ride anywhere tomorrow. $4200
Edit: Here's a few answers to common questions - this is not a ground-up restoration to orig specs, this is a custom build on a very good condition, low mileage bike. The bike is set up for spirited one-up riding (Alice's runs), i.e. rearset footpegs, lower handlebars, no passenger pegs, a little firmer than stock suspension, a little louder than stock exhaust, modernized/upgraded brakes, electronics, and carbs. The frame has not been powdercoated and the aluminum has not been overpolished, it was built by me to enjoy RIDING a bad-ass vintage twin without worrying about chipping, rain, bike shows, etc.
10,000 original miles. Three owners, first two were grandfather and grandson for 40 years.
Very good condition original paint, and gauges. Metallic green (Candy Bacchus Olive) tank and side covers.
Very good condition orig motor, 170# compression, tuned and running strong.
Upgraded electrics - Charlie's Place gen-3 electronic ignition and regulator/rectifier, fresh Dynacoils/plugs/wires.
Mikuni VM32 carbs by PowerBarn, K&N filters, custom manifold spacers.
2-into-1 flat track style exhaust by Omars, ceramic coated black.
Upgraded front brakes - Brembo master cylinder, one-piece SS brake line, rebuilt OE caliper, drilled OE rotor, fresh Ferodo pads.
Hagon rear shocks, front forks have fresh seals, oil, boots.
Custom Gilera style seat on a modified OE pan that still flips over on stock hinges.
Tarozzi rearsets set between front and rear peg mounts, not through rear mounts.
Fresh chain, cables, grips, motor oil, good tires.
Renthal 758 Superbike style handlebars.
Vintage style LED brake light and turn signals.
Side stand and center stand. Original tool kit. Original Owners Manual.
Current CA title and registration. Located in Half Moon Bay.
All original equipment and accesories included - carbs, airbox with filter, exhaust pipes, handlebars, highway bars, luggage rack, turn signals, brake light, seat cover and foam, mirrors.
